The song Creatures (For A While) is performed by 311 .
My name is Volatile
I've been this way a long while
I'd surely like to rest
But the energy gets the best of me
Check it out
It's been a wild ride
I wouldn't change a minute
I can't slow down inside
Guess that's why I live it
Watch it now
The years of mischief
Followed by weeks of thrift
I land on earth's hard face
No legs could keep that pace
And through the rest I sift
Is there ever a right time
When the state of sleeping
Willingly leaves my mind?
Highly frustrated wanna feel elated
Come Monday morn you feel checkmated
You can be uncool and become the rule
Exceptions were made to drown
I'm not used to it, you'd think I'd be by now
The ins the outs the ups and the downs
I wanna make a mess
I wanna blow off stress
I wanna stoke the fire
Just creatures for a while
I wanna make a mess
I wanna blow off stress
I wanna stoke the fire
Just creatures, just creatures
It comes and goes
It comes and goes
Sometimes I go a little crazy
Sometimes I go a little crazy
Just like you I do
I know what you were gonna say
You were afraid to cause dismay
Your lyrics switched around
The mixture watered down
And now a pointless display
It's something one won't understand
Unless they're in it with me hand and hand
Don't buy the fear don't buy that, my dear
The things you love you must keep near and
Carry on and you won't feel withdrawn
Even if you are coming down
Sometimes it's wearable, sometimes it's bearable
I careen towards balance till the gla*s is full
I wanna make a mess
I wanna blow off stress
I wanna stoke the fire
Just creatures for a while
I wanna make a mess
I wanna blow off stress
I wanna stoke the fire
Just creatures, just creatures
It comes and goes
It comes and goes
Sometimes
Sometimes I get a little out there
Sometimes I go off
Sometimes just like you
I go a little crazy
Sometimes I go a little crazy
Just like you I do
Sometimes I go a little crazy
Sometimes I go a little crazy
Just like you I do
